Christian Walk questions

[Endure2]

man dont worry about all that, you just have to keep walking...
do you want to be a christian enough to just keep walking, even if you arent getting it all right?


you gotta be patient, your not gonna fix all your problems today.
you just have to keep going, and over time theyll change.
the only danger your in is turning back to hell.
when you cant walk in your own the Lords got ya man.
walk in grace.

i mean, do you want this bad enough to doit, even if it means doing it poorly?
man i do.
do you want this bad enough even if your doing a terrible job at it and knowing hes the only reason you made it?
if your looking to be something or worth yourself, man youll never find it.

someone once said that anything worth doing is worth doing write.
but the truth is,
anything thats worth doing is worth doing poorly untill you get it right.

man just dont go back.

I just want to begin my post by telling you that God loves you UNCONDITIONALLY and that being a Christian doesn't automatically transform you into a perfect celestial being. I thank God every day that my slavation has nothing to do with my deeds. Our debt was too big for us to pay and that is why Jesus had to die for us. We are saved, not by our deeds, but by the sacrifice of Jesus. When we accept Jesus into our hearts we transform from sinners to saints that sin. The Christian way isn't about a huge laundry list of dos and don'ts. It is about a relationship with our creator. Life as a Christian is simple.....Love God your father with all your heart and love your neighbors as yourself. If you keep this in mind, everything else will fall into place. Don't be so hard on yourself. Don't let the devil take your joy. You are not alone. God is with you and we have ALL been there.

I can't follow the rules that we have to, I can't repent of sin no matter how hard I try, I've prayed and believed everything that a person needs to believe to be a Christian but I still feel something isn't right but I have no idea what it is. I'm tired of always having to follow rules and do things that a Christian has to do to be called a Christian cuz they eventually get dull.......I just want to live my life without worrying every day if I'm going to Heaven or not, because I am SO sinful I don't think I would ever make an acceptable Christian. I want to give up but then I'll worry about what happens to me in the afterlife, so then I go back to Christianity. Ugh, I hate this.

I am not a Christian, I did not become a Christian because I followed the rules ... I became a Christian the day I believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and put my trust in Him (not in myself or my ability to follow any rules ... if I were able to follow all of God's rules, commandments, I would not have to become a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ). From that day I am accepted in the Beloved - God definitely does not accept everything I do, but I am still accepted because of Jesus Christ.

I am not worried anymore whether or not I am going to heaven ... I do worry whether I will bring home a good report card, whether I will find out hereafter the great opportunities and blessings I missed because I ignored God's will, that I don't give Him enough praise and thanks and I don't bring Him as much glory as He deserves.

You gotta realize..you're not always going to feel like doing the right thing. No ones perfect and you don't always want to do the right thing. But the point is you know what the right thing is and you have to try to do it. Not to say you have to be perfect, no way. But just giving up b/c it's hard is not the way to handle it. If you mess up, apoligize to God, and move on. Try to do better in the future. Eventually it'll get easier but it will never be completly easy. I don't know anyone (including myself) who finds it easy to behave right all the time.

I know EXACTLY what your going through. but in my case, it was the people i was hanging around, see they werent really christian, and alot of times got me thinking sinfully. if you have any friends that cause you to think lets say,"unholy" thought, you might have to let them go. Another thing for me, it was the music i was listening to, it really put me on that rollercoaster, i listened to eminem, and 50 cent,and stuff like that. But then i thought,"ya know, if this keeps me from growing closer to God, then away with it!". i suggest that u dont listen to eminem anymore.im prayng for you.
